Last Saturday, I decided to treat myself to a delightful breakfast at Civet, located on the first floor of Lana Plaza along Oloitoktok Road in Nairobi. As soon as I walked in, I was welcomed by an inviting ambiance that perfectly matched the vibrant energy of the city. The cozy seating arrangement and the lively atmosphere instantly put me in a good mood.
My first order was a sumptuous latte, which one reviewer famously described as the best in town. I must say, they were absolutely right! The latte had a rich, creamy texture and an earthy flavor that beautifully complemented the aroma. It truly was a perfect start to my day.
Next, I ventured into trying their Mediterranean-inspired dishes. I ordered the succulent chicken, which was highly praised in several reviews. The chicken was juicy, expertly seasoned, and served at an affordable price. I was particularly impressed with the portion size; it was just right to satisfy my hunger without leaving me feeling overly stuffed.
What made my experience even more enjoyable was the wonderful service. Both Samira and Nicole provided top-tier service throughout my visit. Samira was extremely kind and knowledgeable about the menu, making great recommendations tailored to my preferences. Nicole was equally attentive, ensuring my meal was served just right, and her friendly demeanor added to the delightful atmosphere.
There's no denying that the star of the day was Civet's coffee, which reviewers rave about, claiming it's all made from civet beans that undergo natural fermentation. As per one review, Civet excels at making their meals allergen-sensitive, ensuring that diners have a worry-free dining experience. This attention to detail highlights why Civet stands out.
Overall, my visit to Civet reinforced why it has earned such glowing reviews. Be it their delicious food, exceptional service, or the warm and inviting ambiance, Civet truly has something special to offer. If you’re in Nairobi, make sure to drop by Lana Plaza and indulge in a truly remarkable coffee and dining experience. Trust me, you won’t regret it!
